![]() Why do you think you feel this way? What is happening in your brain and body as you respond to your pain in this way? Why do you feel like you are struggling to move on from this or forgive this person?ģ) Write down your reflections to help organize your thinking.Ĥ) Recheck : think about what your thoughts and feelings are trying to tell you. Are you frustrated? Angry? Fearful? Angry? Sick to your stomach?Ģ) Reflect on how you feel. It has 5 steps:ġ) Gather awareness of how you feel mentally and physically when you think about what happened to you. The Neurocycle is a way to harness your thinking power that I have developed and researched over the past three decades. One great way to do this is using the using the Neurocycle mind management method, which I discuss in detail in my latest book Cleaning Up Your Mental Mess and my app Neurocycle. Forgiveness is a mental process, not a one off event. We can’t just say “I forgive you” as if they are magic words-there needs to be intentionally and work behind what we say and do when someone hurts us. Of course, this is a lot easier said than done, and is something that we need to work on using self-regulation and mind management. We have to take the sting out of the story-yes, it’s still emotional, but it’s managed emotion. If someone does something bad to us and we forgive them, we essentially transfer the “pain energy” from what happened to “recovery energy”. Forgiveness is a part of our healing journey. For example, we grow a part of our brain called the anterior superior temporal sulcus (aSTS), and the more we grow this area, the easier it will become to manage the pain of what happened to us. We help heal ourselves too! In fact, some amazing things start happening in our mind, brain and body when we forgive. When we forgive, we are not just doing so for the sake of the person who has hurt us. We cannot escape the fact that we are all entangled in each others lives. It helps us disconnect from the source of our pain and find true healing. Forgiveness helps us sever the toxic hold someone who hurt us has over us. This is due to the law of entanglement in quantum physics, which keeps everything in a relationship-toxic or otherwise-entangled, affecting each component. It helps us heal n ways we are only just beginning to understand. ![]() It is something that that affects us mentally, emotionally and spiritually. In this podcast (episode #466) and blog, I talk about forgiveness and the mind.įorgiveness is more than just a word or action.
